It has been reported that Neymar is determined to join Manchester United this summer and is not interested in leaving Paris Saint-Germain for any other football club.
According to reports, the 31-year-old Neymar’s time at Paris Saint-Germain seems to be drawing to a close, as the club is aiming to start anew after years of disappointment in the Champions League.
Neymar’s relationship with PSG supporters has been challenging over the last few seasons, along with injuries and age, which have led the club to seek a sale this summer.
The Sun has claimed that the Brazilian, who still has four years left on his lucrative contract, will only consider moving to Manchester United.
The Red Devils have been actively seeking another forward, as Erik ten Hag acknowledged that they require an additional goal threat to complement Marcus Rashford.
Neymar has scored 118 goals in 173 matches for PSG, and his addition to Manchester United’s squad could certainly boost their goal-scoring potential.
However, being the most expensive player in the history of football, Neymar would not be a cheap acquisition.
He reportedly earns close to £1 million per week, and joining United would probably require him to take a significant pay cut.
The Brazilian is believed to be in a disagreement with the PSG management, as he skipped the club’s title celebrations to attend the Monaco Grand Prix.
Despite being anticipated to attend Paris Saint-Germain’s 1-1 draw with Strasbourg on Saturday, which ensured they retained their Ligue 1 title, the 31-year-old forward has been receiving medical treatment since suffering a season-ending ankle injury in March.
Neymar’s decision to swap Barcelona for Paris in a world-record £198 million transfer astonished the footballing world, but he has been unable to validate the exorbitant fee.
